چکیده
Please cite this article in press as: Y. A. S ekercio (2009), doi:10.1016/j.comnet.2009.05.001 We present a comprehensive survey of proposed Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms in the Media Access Control (MAC) sublayer of WiMAX based wireless networks. QoS support in WiMAX is a fundamental design requirement, and is considerably more difficult than in wired networks, mainly because of the variable and unpredictable characteristics of wireless links. We discuss various QoS architectures, signaling mechanisms and admission control techniques proposed in the WiMAX research literature, summarizing the operation of each, and providing comparative evaluations that include advantages and limitations. 2009 Elsevier B.V.

متن کاملResource Allocation in IEEE 802.16 Mobile WiMAX
In this chapter, we focus on the management of resource allocation and scheduling in IEEE 802.16e based mobile WiMAX networks. Since mobile WiMAX uses orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA), the scheduling issues can apply for other OFDMA-based networks as well. Unlike wireless LANs, WiMAX networks incorporate several Quality of Service (QoS) mechanisms at the media access contro...

متن کاملUbiquitous fair bandwidth allocation for multimedia traffic on a WiMAX mesh network with multi-channels
The WiMAX, also known as IEEE 802.16, provides a mechanism for deploying high-speed wireless mesh network, (an ubiquitous wireless network) in metropolitan areas. WiMAX technology can be used as “last mile ubiquitous” broadband connections to deliver streaming audio or video to clients. Thus, Quality of Service (QoS) is very important for WiMAX networks. Providing QoS in multi-hop WiMAX network...
